Which camera body

Hi all,

Currently have a Nikon D7100 and a few lenses such as a samyang 14mm, 35mm f1.8, a 70-200mm and maybe another but I forget.
I'm wanting another body so my wife and I can shoot together and I *think* I want either a Z7iii or a Sony A74.

What would people go for? I the Nikon offers the convenience of keeping a common set of lenses with a suitable adapter, whereas the Sony has the screen that completely flips out which I cant see being really handy.

Someone choose for me.

Mainly into astro / wildlife / landscape

The body is less relevance to the lenses for what you want to shoot, especially as you are not into sports and don't need the high frame rates.

Getting a different system in Sony for Nikon lenses is not ideal....so stick with Nikon....

You’ll already be familiar with the Nikon menu system so I’d stick with that, higher mp sensor and a better body are what would keep me with Nikon.

Thanks - I was leaning towards Nikon as it made more sense. The Sony bodies do look nice though, but as you say I'm not shooting sports. The fastest might be moving animals etc, but I'm not pushing the envelope.
